How is this possible?!? I'm actually enjoying Halo 4 more than the other Halos in Halo:MCC so far. I'm getting nothing but bad games in Halo 2 and 3, tons of lag (it's as if though Halo 2 and 3 are still using the old netcode and people are standbying and lag switching again like old times), bad teammates or teammates who keep stealing my kills, etc. I'm also enjoying Halo 1 alot, I never really got a chance to play Halo 1 MP since it was before matchmaking, it's actually very good, love that scoped magnum, it's a total beast. But yeah, I've just been dominating people at Halo 4 today. It definitely has it's issues, such as the loadouts allowing people to spawn with sticky grenades and then sprint at you to try and get a sticky kill, but it's still really fun. I had a feeling that I would find the older Halo's too slow after so many years of playing CoD and I was right, it's painfully slow sometimes. I didn't play Halo 4 much after the weapon balancing patch was implemented, it really improved things. I'm also liking the Halo 4 DLC maps so far, never bought them on 360.

Playing Halo 4 in Halo:MCC today has left me feeling alot more positive about Halo 5. It really does seem like the best of both classic Halo and modern shooters all rolled up into one game, I think 343 may have nailed it with Halo 5. Can't wait for the beta now.

Yeah I never understood why people complained so much about Halo 4. I enjoyed the MP a lot. 

Majority didn't play after the update. But I can understand some of the complaints. Like the loadout perks

Question.

Can I split screen MCC AND have a third co-op member over Xbox Live?

So...three total players in the campaign, two local and one remote?

If u could do it in the original than yes. But halo 1, and 2 could only do 2 players. Halo 3 could do 4. I'm not sure about halo 4 though.



Halo MCC will sell 5+ million copies(including digital)

halo 5 will sell 10 million copies(including digital)

x1 will pass ps4 in USA, and UK.

Hmmm, just noticed that both PS4 editions of Dragon Age are ranked quite a bit higher than the highest ranked Xbox One edition on Amazon. If Microsoft doesn't start their marketing campaign for it soon they might as well have just flushed their money down the toilet buying the marketing rights. Still think they should have bundled it with Xbox One.


While I agree they need to market it, they need to focus on halo right now. Virtually no advertising going on, which baffles me. Tons of COD commercials but jack shit for halo.

 

Maybe they should do a halo/ dragon age bundle for the holidays. That would be sick.

1 and 2 only have 2 player co-op, you can do that with 3 and 4 though.

So pretty much what you're saying is you don't understand how people could possibly have a different opinion from you?
